At 39196 Sweetwater Drive, luxury meets desert living and details meet design.The home sits along the 18th fairway of Avondale Country Club, offering a front-row view of sculpted greens and mountain views. The refined open layout has been fully updated, expertly suited for quiet mornings or lavish dinner parties. The great room opens wide with high ceilings, notable lighting fixtures, and a stone fireplace that anchors the space. The kitchen has been upgraded with sleek granite, stainless steel appliances, a counter depth refrigerator, plus a breakfast bar elevating everyday comfort. The primary suite feels like a private retreat tucked away from the main living quarters. The primary bath features a high tech toto toilet along with a spacious shower. A second guest room welcomes visitors, while the third room is styled as a den -- perfect for reading, working, or simply unwinding. It adds a touch of worldly charm, the kind you find in a well-appointed traveler's lounge. Outside, the home reaches its full expression where every hour of the day carries its own light. The front yard landscaping includes artificial turf perfect for low maintenance and consistent aesthetics. The backyard features a salt-water pool and spa. The wraparound patio includes a newly installed misting system. Multiple vignettes anchor the outdoor living--capturing fairway views and dramatic sunsets. This desert retreat is luxurious without feeling loud, peaceful without feeling remote.
